Is that a fish or what?

Filed Under Biology 

This handy dandy little site, Build a Fish, is a great one for explaining the adaptation of the underwater set. You choose your fish’s habitat, and then are given options what type of head/mouth, body, and tail your fish should have. Once you’ve made your choices, you can check its survivability. If you’ve built a fish that can survive in that habitat, the site lets you know.

This website would be a great starting point for a discussion of marine animal adaptations. Why do certain fish do well in certain environments and not others? This is a simple but clear way to illustrate the points and get a discussion going.
